    Hi Jo Sweetie...
    What a beautiful share today, and SO true. If only more people could read this you know. I can honestly say that I wish more people lived by this. Sadly we know, this is not so.

    Hope you are having a wonderful Friday sweetie. Many hugs and much love, Sherry

    Just a quick peek again...
    Love that you're still on the road and enjoying life! I'm still here in the desert, working, busy with dad stuff and.....cardboard! Winter will come soon and all will settle down.

    And Wisdom = Common Sense.

    But you know what 'they' say about Common Sense... It isn't very common. :-)

    Very apt quote
    and one that was
    at the back of my
    mind as I wrote my
    last post; was I
    speaking too loudly?
    Sometimes you just
    HAVE to put it out
    there! Welcome home,
    Jo!
    xx Suzanne
    PS: I laughed at your
    post about Chicago dogs.
    We used to live in the
    Windy City and their
    hot dogs really are
    the BEST!

TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY......I'M GOING TO HAVE A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY MONTH!!!

I turn 67 today.....and actually I feel better as the years accumulate.  Since I've gotten older I actually have decided that I will celebrate each day during the month of October...just being grateful for being healthy and alive.   I hope each one of you who follow this little blog of mine celebrate each day along with me.... Here are some of the things I have planned for my birthday month: 1.  Listing our current home the end of the first week in November.  We are pretty excited to be moving into a little smaller spot as it means less work and maintenance.  We just want to be able to live more and work less.  Although we still have not found our new spot.....we know it is out there.   2.  Taking a 15 day cruise on the Rhine from Amsterdam to Budapest.  We will visit 5 countries along the way.  One of the stops will be in the place I was born....Nuremberg, Germany.  My  family  left Germany right...

" I AM ROOTED....BUT I FLOW". Virginia Woolf

2020..can you believe it?  With each passing year I am more amazed that I am still here.   Both my parent's died very young and if genetics prove correct sometimes one can have the same fate.  Anyway....I digress. At the beginning of each new year I always find myself wondering what this particular year has in store.  With advanced age you can almost always depend on little surprises here and there.  Your life can be bumping along and then suddenly everything changes in the blink of an eye.  Your health changes, your finances change, family troubles, death of loved ones...the list goes on and on. Instead of making any resolutions for this upcoming year....I have promised myself that I will embrace any and all change with thoughtful consideration.  No panic attacks, no jumping into immediate action, no needless worrying about things I cannot control. I know that is a tall order because being human we...
